How to get browser URL

Question

Dears
We are working with system with 2 application server IPs and one Real IP (which is able to be accessed through internet)
I would like to know the URL is the user using in order to use his IP to open something else from the system.
Chcking the host name not usesful because if user connect from home using Real IP it return the AS host name which real IP redirct to it.
I need to know how to get the URL of the session from the form or to know whether the user connected using the Real IP or not.

I think you can get a URL from/with a PJC (java pluggable component) from/with IHandler interface..
Try this bean.. You have a property with name HOST_URL.. (with some modification you can also read applet parameters).. (I have done this now but I have not jet tested it)....but I thik this should work...
You have also other parameters to get client IP addres and hostname...
